Regardless of how you felt about TRON: Legacy (personally, I liked it) there’s no denying that the TRON name is now very fresh in people’s minds. Disney wants to strike while the iron is hot, and is getting ready to release a new animated series called TRON UPRISING on Disney XD in 2012, but not before a ten-part micro-series being released this fall. Check out the sneak preview trailer below, which looks like an interesting mix of CGI and Japanese-style animation. Could be pretty cool, especially if the finished product matches the quality of the preview. You’ll see this clip on the new TRON: Legacy DVD and Blu-ray. The story take place between the original TRON and TRON: Legacy. Now get this, the voice cast includes impressive names like Elijah Wood, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Mandy Moore, Paul Reubens, Nate Corddry, Lance Henriksen and Bruce Boxleitner (the one and only original Tron!). Directors of the project include Charlie Bean, Joseph Kosinski and Sean Bailey, and the stories are written by TRON: Legacy scribes Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz. I’m sold, how about you? Tell us in the comments.
Beck, a young program who becomes the unlikely leader of a revolution inside the computer world of The Grid. His mission is to free his home and friends from the reign of the villainous Clu 2 and his henchman General Tesler. Beck will be trained by Tron – the greatest warrior the Grid has ever known. Tron will not only teach Beck the fighting skills he needs to challenge this brutal military occupation, but will be a guide and mentor to him as he grows beyond his youthful, impulsive nature into a courageous, powerful leader. Destined to become the new protector of the system, Beck adopts Tron’s persona and becomes the archenemy of Tesler and his oppressive forces.
